A Change and a Challenge

Can I live without sugar and white flour and nutritional yeast?When I was told by my naturopath to forgo these food items, strictly, for a month, I almost had a panic attack.This is the time to bake!I had grand plans of sweet potato and cherry chocolate chip crescent rolls and pumpkin bundt cake and, well. I’m freaking myself out again so I better stop.It is not as much that I need to eat all the foods, but I want to bake with them and create these recipes, but I’d also have to be able to taste them.Otherwise, that is just torture!

So I am switching to a new way of thinking.I am gearing myself up for a challenge.I like to think of myself as a bit of a recipe master, so I should be up to the challenge of limiting my diet even more and still creating tasty food.So for the next month my focus will be on vegetables.I am thinking eggplant lasagna, barley risotto, soups galore, stuffed peppers, kale salad….see those all sound delicious!It will not be the end.Send me support and I will start working on some great recipes.

In case you missed this recipe I previously posted, click on the link below.You’ll be surprised by how good such a healthy soup can taste!
